This 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 426 Hemi Tribute blazes in Viper Red, a
color that screams performance and attitude. Originally a
440-powered R/T, this Charger now flexes serious muscle with a 426
Hemi V8 under its hood. The aggressive stance is accentuated by
period-correct 14-inch Chrysler mag wheels with black painted
inserts, wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires (P225/70R14 front,
P225/75R14 rear). A painted metallic gray bumblebee stripe wraps
around the rear, paying homage to its muscle car lineage. The
bumper chrome shines brilliantly, complementing the sleek,
aerodynamic profile that made the '68 Charger a legend on street
and track.
Inside, the ivory interior creates a striking contrast to the
exterior's bold red. Vinyl bucket seats offer both comfort and
period-correct style, while the factory center console houses the
floor shifter for the 3-speed automatic transmission. The dashboard
features factory-style gauges including a tachometer, essential for
monitoring the Hemi's performance. An aftermarket steering wheel
with a teak wooden perimeter adds a touch of sophistication. Modern
conveniences blend seamlessly with classic style - a Premier AM/FM
radio provides the tunes, while factory air conditioning keeps the
cabin cool during spirited drives.
The star of this show is the 426 Hemi V8, built to produce a
tire-shredding 550 horsepower on pump gas. The engine bay is a
showcase of power and engineering, featuring dual Edelbrock
Performer AFB-style four-barrel carburetors with electric chokes,
sitting atop a Chrysler aluminum intake manifold. Long tube
stainless headers feed into a dual exhaust system for that
signature Hemi growl. Performance upgrades continue with a
high-performance aluminum radiator and twin electric fans to keep
this powerhouse cool. The 3-speed automatic transmission and 8 3/4
rear end with 3.23 gears provide the perfect balance of
acceleration and highway cruising ability.
